Tuesday Tunesday #6

Tonight I'm listening to this amazing album and thinking about the future. I'm on the edge of making so many changes in my life and I feel so excited, ready, and content. The next few weeks are going to be big ones for me. I can't wait to write about how they turn out!

Tuesday Tunesday #5

Today's playlist has a Simon and Garfunkel sandwich going on, which means it's automatically awesome. I'm going to listen to it on repeat while I do all the apartment cleaning that I put off over the weekend. Hopefully these songs can block out the violent noise of Justin Bieber being blared across the street. Because I'm only a few more "Baby, baby, baby, oh's" away from calling the police.

"Pretend It's Tuesday" Tunesday #4

From the Chelsea Victoria Etsy shop

Tuesday Tunesday is happening on a Thursday because I had some wonderful distractions at the beginning of this week. On Monday I had a second job interview and Tuesday I found out that I am now officially employed with an amazing company! The best part is, this company seems to really appreciate their employees. I've had too many terrible jobs so this will be a welcome relief. (But terrible jobs usually produce hilarious stories. I think I'll share some of mine with you tomorrow. Get ready.)

To celebrate my new job, the boyfriend treated me to tofu pad thai. I could eat it for every meal of every day. Seriously. Then we came home, listened to some lovey dovey music, and cuddled up with the pup. A perfect ending to a wonderful day. I'm so grateful for my two handsome gentlemen. 

I've been feeling so positive lately. I'm excited for where I am in my life right now and where I'm going. My mind is full of possibilities and my heart is full of love. Here is a short and sweet playlist of my favorite happy love songs so you can feel as sappy as I do right now. Enjoy!

Tuesday Tunesday #3

So this weekend I:

  • gave up on pants halfway through Saturday
  • suffered a persistent sinus headache
  • ate my weight in waffles at brunch

In the immortal words of Meatloaf, "2 out of 3 ain't bad." I'm calling this long weekend a success! Now I'm off to celebrate with some music. Feel free to join this virtual dance party!

Tuesday Tunesday #2

One of my favorite pastimes in high school was spending hours at the library. Yep. Hanging out among the books was my idea of a good time. Still is. It was there in the av section that I discovered an album called "The Ghost of Fashion" by a group I'd never heard of, Clem Snide. It was love at first listen. Their Elvis reference in the second track stole my heart and kept it. (For those of you who don't know, I love all things Elvis. I even have a bust of Elvis that looks like it was crafted by an overachieving art student in the 90's. Don't worry, I'm sure he'll make an appearance on here soon enough.)

During my 4 years of high school this was my favorite band and my go to music to fit every angsty teenage mood. Listening to it now brings back a flood of memories that make me feel like I'm 17 again. Thankfully, I now have a better handle on my emotions and, almost as importantly, my eyebrow tweezing.

Now that I've shared, it's your turn to tell me the songs that transport you back to high school. The more embarrassing the better!

Tuesday Tunesday #1

I think the last few lazy, hazy days of summer are here. At night the air is getting chilly and crisp; it's perfect cuddling weather. This is the music I put on quietly while I'm slipping off to sleep and ready to dream of fall days coming soon. The last song has a few f-bombs so skip that one if you're at work or have delicate ears.
